Not bad packs. Have a Jumbo box on order so I can work on the set, will post that break once I receive it.

I thought I'd never get through my regular box of this stuff; lotta cards. Your Jumbo box should be sweet! I hope all the hockey collectors pre order their stuff to prevent from getting raped and raked when the variuos products go live this year.

Yeah could be a real good year to buy and sit on Cup and Dominion kind of products and wait for them to go way up in price, but my luck it wouldn't happen and not like I have money to invest in something like that (let alone like I can have unopened stuff sitting around and me not open it )

Nice stuff Brian, can't wait for my boxes to start getting here, have some Rack Pack boxes and a couple Retail coming, man I better be darn close to the set with all of those boxes with that much into them

Looking for former Oregon State players in NFL, Steven Jackson top priority:

Thanks I hope it is. Only 10 packs of 52 cards with 20 rookies and 40 gold parallels, so that means 40+ base per pack which will still leave me short of the set by at least 100, and still short on the rookies by 40 or so.

As for the price gouging it is already happening from the manufacturers end. Guess they got to make up for all that lost revenue last year due to the lockout and restrictions on rookies. Beyond that they know demand will be there since it is basically a "double" rookie group.

Base score is usually $30 a box, but this year it is $50, but they did add one auto per box rather than only a few per case like last year. UD S1 hobby box is already at pre-sell price of $75 up $12 from what prior year pre-sell boxes were set of $63. Even Trilogy was more pricey as it came out at $230-240, whereas in prior years it was around $200.
